Gallows Corner flyover now open


Gallows Corner Flyover has been re-opened, ahead of schedule, and to a big sigh of relief for motorists using the A12/A127.

Following a period of routine repair works in April 2008, the flyover was further closed to traffic on 28 th May for major works to repair the parapets and support structures.

The Gallows Corner two-lane flyover was erected as a temporary structure in 1970, for an intended 12 to 15 year period. Since then, the flyover has been maintained by a succession of owners since its construction comprising Havering Borough Council, the Department for Transport, the Highways Agency and, since 2000, Transport for London (TfL).
